I'm on Luna every chance I get. If my eye is not tired/stressed from the day I start observing with the Fujiyama Orthos then as my eye tires I switch to the Delites. If tired then from get go I start with the Delites. Just off of Vendelinus is Holden and I go here every opportunity I can, searching for the little crater inside of it. My youngest grandson is named Holden so I have to go here.

The moon our first and frequent target. Easy to find when you are 5 or 65

While the moon can be a bother when you are busy trying to see other things it is a pleasure to continue to view it when it becomes all in the way.......I like how the moon as it moves east each night can be a friendly guidepost when you are trying to help newbees and young people to find stuff For example who among us has not advised .." Be sure to see Jupiter tonight as it is easy to find just to the left and down from the quarter moon or check out Mars it is easy to find as the moon is just above it " well you get the idea

The moon cant live with it cant live without it ? well let's enjoy it
